  • HAHAH that was hilarious! I loved it, great official sounding voice over, the sound actually wasnt bad at all considering most of it was shot outside. Great idea!

  • To use one of my favorite hipster phrases, "Suh-weeet!" This was funny with plenty of LOLs from the get-go. Creative, witty, a delicious send-up of a vaguely-defined group of people who are simultaneously cooler and more pathetic than the rest of us. Loved the "ironic" T-shirt contest and the judgment contest.
    "If they only knew he was a 9-11 rescue worker!"
    "Oh, they do."
    Priceless!

    Fun and entertaining. Now I want to see a pod on How To Spot a Hipster. And the varied hipster species -- what makes a New York hipster different from an LA hipster or the original hipster, the SF hipster? Please, someone make that pod. I would watch it.

  • Love or hate hipsters (or both), this was hilarious. As someone who has lived amongst them in 2 different cities (but am unwilling, like the short suggests, to admit membership in the club...) this mockumentary really hits on what makes a hipster a hipster.

    Best part: myspace profile picture commentary.

    We all do it -- try to find the slightly sexy, yet funny, ironic, carefully unposed picture that we've spent so much time mulling over it's a complete joke.

    Cheers to hipsters "hip" enough to make fun of themselves.

  • That was hilarious! I agree wtih Julie, I would watch "How To Spot a Hipster. And the varied hipster species -- what makes a New York hipster different from an LA hipster or the original hipster, the SF hipster?"

  • I do have to say that brief but funny, bid about hipsters was very informative. Next they should do sceneXcore.
    gotta love those cookie-cutter SceneGirls.

  • A friend of mine sent me this a few months ago as well and I was really surprised to see this on-air. It is great! Very well put together. The pace, the competition, the ridiculous-ness of the whole thing really engages you :)

    This was awesome and hilarious. YouTube's got the unabridged version (complete with illicit drug use)!

  • Brilliant. Hipsters, get over yourselves.

  • Amazing. I went to a "show" last night and this was the perfect antidote to that.

  • Wicked funny. Great pacing, doesn't dwell too long on the joke, but definitely executes the parody very well. Really creative events and good observations of the characters. Whether you love or hate hipsters, everyone knows one and that's what makes this pod so good.

  • this is very funny...and a very nice work around on the "non-fiction" requirements...hehe

  • I noticed this as a trend - dressing like a lead singer, all the behavioral manerisms, need to be connected and out there. Now it has a name I an can point them out to my wife. I am a fan.

  • "SF hipster = the Mission"

    hah! exactly. whenever i walk over to valencia i get to see them in their hipster lines at boogaloos, eating their hipster eggs and bacon.

    god i hate hipsters.

  • "You know, it's like pirates are the new ninjas."
    Frozen laughter, this is spot on. Well done!

  • this hit the nail on the head. absolutely hilarious

  • This is really good stuff. The commentators are so fricking hilarious. "How does it feel to be disqualified so early on in the competition?.......Uh, I don't care. HAAAHAAA!

  • it's funny 'cause it's true! we should get these guys a job as figure skating commentators....they could use some livening up!

  • This is just some really great social satire. Brilliant writing and clever ideas and observations. As an L.A. native, I can certainly identify. Extremely well-executed. Kudos.

  • very funny

  • I salute you my fellow Olympians! This looks like a sterling event. I particularly like the charming native costumes worn by your competitors.

  • -No tattoos on "actors"
    -"Actors" way too fat
    -The guys lacked proper mustaches
    -The "targeted" person lacked a polo shirt, or ANYTHING to make him stand out as a target
    -Nobody has a messenger bag. Did you forget about bikes?

    Basically, the creator of this pod is a bit out of touch with the actual hipster community. It could've been much better. The "lose the Oakleys" comment was good. That girl in the video portrayed nothing but a plain person that smokes too much. Also, that robot vs. ninja vs. pirate garbage is about 6 years old. Anyway... decent effort. Keep on trying.
